Despite finally getting our band into the studio as of late, we haven't really been doing that well with regular rehearsals. Since we found out Erich might not be able to commit the time needed to be our drummer, we've tried out a couple people, talked about trying out even more people, and thought about even more, but we still haven't thus far been able to settle into a regular routine of full band rehearsals.
That said, a few weeks ago we were able to meet up as a quartet with Doug's drummer (from his Sublime cover band) Brady, who, as you may remember, was one of our better-fitting candidates for drums early on but encouraged us to look elsewhere due to him also having scheduling conflicts. All this considered though, we felt like we were left with too few options, so we had a talk with him to see if he would be up for being a less-committed-but-still-regular member of the band, to which he agreed to give it a go, I think.
That rehearsal went fairly well, but it did feel like we were taking a few steps back, adding someone new into the group who wasn't up to date with our most recent progress on the songs. At this point, we're kinda trying to decide if Brady or one other candidate (whom I'll discuss when I get to it chronologically on this blog, being behind and all) would ultimately be better for us in the long run, but hopefully we'll be able to settle on one definite member sooner than later...
